Ending On A Sour Note

The week went so well and having it end with a poor long run bums me out. It's really no big deal as this happens every single build-up. It's a natural occurring thing. One might have a series of weeks going well then, Bam, a crappy run. As long as the crappy ones are few and far between that is OK with me.

The run took me out west again and we traveled east on Grand and eventually Superior street until we hit the Rose Garden and turned back. I couldn't find a rhythm the first hour and just struggled to maintain the second hour. No major pains to report, just heavy sore muscles.

I am looking forward to my ultra-slow recovery run in the am and will more than likely perform another week of stellar training in the woods of Hartley Park.

About Me

As each year passes I tell myself I will not take running too serious and racing will be less important. Then I see race results or have a decent stretch of training and all I do is think of racing. I will say this. I love to run and I love to race even more. So, I will run as much as possible and hope to have a great year of running. As I mentioned in the past, the journey to a specific event is often the best part.
